Our Work and Workers. 


S WE come to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of our Woman’s Home and Foreign Mis- 
P sionary Society, itis fitting that we take a glance over our fields of work, home and for- 
eign, and watch for awhile our busy workers. Even this cursory view may serve to remind us 
of the toil and hardship they are bearing in our stead, and may lead us to deeper interest in 
their work, and more fervent, constant prayer for them. 
These 20 years have been fruitful in work for Christ, both at home and abroad, and 
we are thankful and rejoice over the good accomiplished ‘‘In His Nanie.’’ 


In the home field, our missions at Freeport, Ill., San Francisco and Los Angeles, Cal., 


have become self-sustaining and we now help to support the following: Denver, Col.; Sacra- 


mento, Oakland, San Jose, Riverside anc Alameda, Cal.; Council Bluffs, Ia.; Ann Arbor, 
Mich., and Scranton, Pa. 

In the foreign field in India, we have six lady missionaries—Dr. Anna S. Kugler, 
Miss Katherine Fahs, Miss Jessie Brewer, Dr. Mary Baer, Miss Anva K. Sanford and Miss 
Mary Kuauss. Dr. Kugler, Dr. Baer and Miss Fahs are engaged in the medical work, 
which will be greatly enlarged when our fine hospital is fully equipped and furnished. The 
other ladies are teaching in the schools and zenanas. Mrs. lL. B. Wolf has for several years 
past been actively engaged in the school work, and Mrs. J. H. Harpster has had 
charge of the Mohammedan Industrial School. The wives of all our missionaries assist in 
the work as they have opportunity. 

We have one Boarding School, with 96 pupils, 15 day schools, including the Training, 


Industrial and Mohammedan schools, with 813 pupils, and 14 Sunday schools, with 705 


pupils. These have 11 Bible teachers and 63 other helpers and teachers. There are also 100 
zenana pupils and 64 other learners; homes visited the last year, 141; teachers, 8. 

The last report of the medical work is as follows: g patients in the hospital, 5,400 
patients in the dispensary, 13,000 visits of patients, 241 patients in homes, 873 visits to 
homes; 8 helpers. 

In Africa, we support two missionaries, Sister Augusta Shaffer and Miss Mary Van 


Leer. They are engaged in teaching the girls in the Emma VY. Day Memorial School. 


The General Literature Committee sends forth this little souvenir with the prayer that 
bringing us face to face, as it does, with our work and workers, it may inspire us all witha 
more personal interest in our missionaries, and more self-denying, consecrated effort for the 


extension of Christ’s Kingdom. MPHeM:
